The Adam Cole vs Pat McAfee Match Wasn't Rehearsed!?

This past week saw a match at Takeover that was great. 

The surprising part was that it involved a pre-show host by the name of Pat McAfee AND the fact that it wasn't rehearsed. 

At least, that's what it is reported. 

Earlier in the week, Wrestling Observer Radio and Dave Meltzer (from Cagesideseats) said that the reason why the bout wasn't rehearsed is that quote: 

"Just went in there and did it because they knew Pat was good and they know Adam is great."

Something really interesting to put out in the side, in an interview with ESPN, McAfee talked about how he perfectly nailed the Swanton during his bout with Adam Cole: 

"Jeff Hardy came to my studio a year ago to be a part of the show, he and Matt. And we actually did a Swanton Bomb contest onto a trampoline that we had built in the office, off of a ladder. 

And he gave me a high score, rave reviews. He taught me that. And that just seemed like the right thing to do at the time."

Samoa Joe Voices King Shark In Suicide Squad: Kill All The Justice League!?

So. DC Fandome happened and it was nothing but exciting announcements as a fan of all things comic book entertainment. 

One of those exciting announcements was Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill All The Justice League CGI trailer. 

In it, it had a familiar individual that voiced the sh*t talking, King Shark. 

That individual is current Monday Night RAW colour commentator, Samoa Joe. 

Joe himself confirmed it on Twitter. 

I will be definitely rubbing my hands like Birdman once the game comes out in 2022 on the next-gen consoles as well as PC. 

When's Jimmy Uso Coming Back?? 

One half of The Usos, Jimmy Uso has been out of in-ring action since April. 

It's been 4 months and we got an update regarding an-ring return for Uso. 

In an interview with Table Talk, Jimmy Uso pretty much said that he's eyeing for a January 2021 return.  

Keith Lee Is Getting New Theme Music!?

WWE NXT: Marzo 18, 2020 | WWE


From Fightful Select (Cagesideseats), The reason why Keith Lee got some generic stock music as his theme song is that WWE is trying to tell its superstars to stop using CFO$ produced songs. 

WWE owns 50% of CFO$'s music created for WWE. This WWE/CFO$ situation is worth its own separate article and I ain't going too long in this piece. 

Sticking to Keith Lee, a reliable site when it comes to the music side of WWE, Arenataping tweeted out saying that Lee will have new music with lyrics. 

All I can say is, I hope it's better than what they got. 

Paul Ellering On Going To Manage AOP Once Again. 

Paul Ellering | WWE


Paul Ellering recently spoke with the Two Man Power Trip Podcast. 

In that discussion, the WWE Hall of Famer brought up the story of how he was about to manage AOP again (from WrestlingInc): 

"The idea was to bring me back in, but then this corona stuff came up," Ellering said earlier this month. "Then the guys got hurt and they were out a while, so everything got put on the back shelf and I don't know where it sits now."

That would've been straight flames. 


What do you think about the news I just reported and follow me on the tweets @omartheplayaguy. Anyways, stay safe smarks.

WrestleFest DXB's Fahrenheit 971 | A Coherent W.

  Being a fan of pro wrestling (or any other medium of entertainment) does have its pros and cons when engaging with the industry as a whole.  On one hand, you've witnessed an Eddie Kingston promo that'll make you tear up more than the opening scene of Up.  On the other hand, going to the wrestling subreddit will definitely have you questioning humanity as a whole and the fact that living in an area where a wrestling presence pretty much doesn't exist like a Vince Russo-written storyline that is, you know, GOOD!?  Luckily, the latter retracted my con as a fan because I'm talking about Wrestlefest DXB and their latest joint, "971 Fahrenheit".  Martin Bushby of now Post Wrestling Alumni brought the event to my attention because like a wrestler on an episode of RAW I get distracted all the time.  So, I decided to take a short journey to a taxi then a bus then a train then a 30-minute walk to the show itself and I know I'm going to sound biased as f**k but I l...

WWE Smackdown 14/1/22 | A Coherent Review.

WOAH, WOOOOOAH *Insert drums* BURN IT DOWN *insert more drums* Don't know why I just quoted Seth Rollins' theme song. Probably because I'm bored and have nothing else better to do on a Saturday afternoon (which explains the Smackdown review).  Now, how was the show? It was aight.  The Viking Raiders vs Angel And Humberto Carrillo vs Jinder Mahal And Shank vs Mansoor And Cesaro. Winner Gets A Blue Tag Belt Opportunity.  The best part about all of this was The Usos introduction of all 4 members. Gotta say, they're pretty natural at this and wouldn't mind them doing ring announcing full time.  The only thing they should avoid is threatening somebody with WWE lawyers.  The Viking Raiders won the whole thing and all I can say is, finally! No more Viking Raiders vs Happy Corbin and Madcap Moss matches.  Why WWE Be Messing With Sami Like That!?  That "InZayn" stunt show is sad to watch. He should've been doing so much better than trying to do knockoff Jacka**...

The 5 News Week: Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions?, WWE Made How Much From YouTube!?

We're back. Well, I'm back given that I do this all by myself but in any case, The 5 News Week has returned to your feeds wherever ever it may be. In case you're new here, basically, in one article I share the 5 major or minor news of the week. Now, there were a lot of news that I've missed in 3 weeks including a story of a WWE shareholder suing WWE and Vince McMahon (how the hell didn't I report about this?).  I'm rambling on so without further useless explanations, here are the 5 News Week.  Bret Hart. The Next Guest On Stone Cold's Broken Skull Sessions? Steve Austin has interviewed some of the wrestlers he has faced over the years on his Broken Skull Sessions show with the exception of Goldberg other than a few stare downs in a feud that everyone wishes to forget.  Another person that is no stranger to the rattlesnake is the hitman himself Bret Hart and he's reportedly the next guest. From PWInsider and Mike Johnson, Bret was in the City ...
